No Headline

Yesterday the editors of the CRIMSON were surprised at receiving a large sized envelope post marked somewhere in Florida, and bearing on its face in large letters "Sample of Florida Mistletoe." Being ignorant of the purposes for which this spring of green leaves could be designed, we searched diligently for directions, and found them concisely stated in two paragraphs headed. "He has a right to kiss her," and "The custom of kissing still exists." When the full meaning dawned upon us a heartfelt sigh of relief ascended to Heaven. For years, in common with other members of the journalistic profession, the editors of the CRIMSON have been troubled with extreme bashfulness! Here at last is a remedy, by simply deceiving some fair one into standing beneath this emblem of osculation, "he has a right, etc.," for do not the directions say so? It is also pleasant to be reminded that "the custom of kissing still exists." We, in our editorial loneliness, had almost forgotten this once well known fact. But why the CRIMSON, in preference to the Advocate or Lampoon, should have been singled out for this mark of favor is beyond our comprehension.
